AI tries to minimize uncertainty by giving us perfect predictions about our future. What if we embraced uncertainty instead?
AI expert Carissa Véliz argues that uncertainty is good news: it means the future is still unwritten, and we still have the power to shape it.
This week on our podcast, Lavin Voices, we sat down with Lavin Exclusive Speaker Carissa Véliz, an Oxford professor of philosophy and author of Prophecy: Prediction, Power, and the Fight for the Future, from Ancient Oracles to AI. In this clip, she explains why the blank page can feel frightening—and why embracing it is essential to living freely and building a future of our own.
